\n Walking with your dog keeps you fit and happy - even when it gets dark early. With these 10 tips, you'll increase visibility, safety and comfort during evening walks. Going out later or on vacation? Then find a reliable sitter through Petbnb:
\n dog or cat sitter in your area<\/a>.\n <\/p>\n

1. Use reflective materials<\/h3>\n

Make yourself and your dog visible to motorists, cyclists and other walkers with reflective collar\/rig, leash\/leash and a vest or jacket for yourself.<\/p>\n

Thus, you can be easily seen from a distance - crucially in the dark.<\/p>\n

2. Wear LED lights or luminous accessories<\/h3>\n

An LED light on the collar, a luminous leash and a headlamp for yourself provide extra visibility and control.<\/p>\n

3. Stay in well-lit areas<\/h3>\n

Choose routes with street lights and avoid dark alleys. It's safer and you're more likely to see obstacles coming.<\/p>\n

4. Always keep your dog on a leash<\/h3>\n

In the dark, your dog may startle or wander more quickly. Walking on a leash prevents risk and provides peace of mind.<\/p>\n

5. Be extra alert to danger<\/h3>\n

Watch for glass, slippery spots or protruding branches. Walk more quietly and pay attention to signals from your dog - they are often more likely to notice something.<\/p>\n

6. Provide your dog with identification<\/h3>\n

A badge with name and phone number (plus chip registration) increases the chances of quick reunion if your dog slips away.<\/p>\n

7. Use GPS tracking<\/h3>\n

A GPS collar or tracker helps you find your dog instantly via your smartphone - extra peace of mind in the dark.<\/p>\n

8. Add a bell<\/h3>\n

A small bell on the collar makes it easier to locate your dog when he is sniffing in bushes.<\/p>\n

9. Be prepared for bad weather<\/h3>\n

Rain, fog or snow reduce visibility. Use waterproof LED lights and reflective clothing\/coat for both of you.<\/p>\n

10. Keep yourself and your dog warm<\/h3>\n

Choose warm, comfortable clothing and possibly a dog coat in case of short fur or cold weather. Comfort = safe and relaxed walking.<\/p>\n

Safely on the road together<\/h2>\n

With good visibility, smart route selection and the right equipment, every evening walk will be safer and more fun for both of you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
